The Plot - Detailed planning permission has been granted for the erection of a substantial four bedroom detached dwelling of approximately 173 sq metre family house situated on the edge of the popular village of Coombe. The site occupied is sat within 0.3 of an acre which is bordered with woodland to its north and east sides whilst enjoying a sheltered, sunny aspect with views over the village and playing field. The plot benefits from an established vehicular driveway entrance leading up to a double garage with three phase electric whilst a mains water supply is metered to the external wall of the garage which provides a dry, storage facility and increases the development by a further 30 sq metres.

Location - The picturesque village of Coombe (often described as a hamlet) is in fact a friendly community tucked away in a pretty valley setting about 5 miles from St Austell and 11 miles from Truro. Coombe is almost undiscovered and unspoilt from over development due to the geography of the valley. The village has an active programme of events sponsored through the local Community Playing Field where there are also Tennis Court for local use.

Coombe is close to the nearby villages of St Stephen, Grampound, Grampound Road, Probus and Sticker. All of which provide various stores, doctors surgeries, public houses and primary schools. Whilst secondary schools lie either in Truro or St. Austell as well as the Roseland School in Tregony and Brannel School at St. Stephen. The property lies in the heart of central Cornwall, equal distant of both north and south coasts and access onto the A30 is also very convenient.
